| Oh, the frustrations of the speaker search If you are looking for small speakers, consider a pair of Totem Model 1 Signatures. Great bass for small speakers, nice sound in all registers, image very well. Need a good amount of power. | |
| Downloading & Converting Music Steve - I'm surprised about highdeftapetransfers.com. It sounds like they are just ripping commercial reel to reel recordings to digital - one step farther away from the masters. Why would someone buy that rather than getting closer to the masters? | |
| Soothing the night.... Do you have a smartphone? Their are quite a few free apps that generate soothing background noise. Check them out! | |
| A Paypal Offer - Is This Secure? Thanks all for your input. Ultimately, I decided not to go with Paypal and convinced the buyer to pay with a wire transfer. Once he realized it was the only way I'd be willing to sell it to him (given the vagueries of the deal and lack of conformi... | |
| Audiogon/HD Tracks $5 offer Interesting. The thing that holds me back from WAVE is the lack of embedded tagging informaion. Have you tried AIFF? At least that has tagging information... | |

| Could they sell a high-end amp without the fancy I agree with the Unsound's comments above, and I look forward to hearing a Hegel product sometime. Another product that provides true high end performance with extremely sound engineering and no bling to drive up the price are the Musical Referenc... | |
| A Paypal Offer - Is This Secure? Guys - I thought bank transfers were reversable. Am I wrong about that? If they are reversable, they are less secure than paypal... I will ask my banker about this...Peter | |
| Floor standing speakers under $1500.00 Is anyone here paying attention to his room size? He'll need some bigger and possibly efficient speakers! | |
| wiring monoblocks to speakers Sorry, but I don't agree. There was no direct nastiness in Jmcgrogan2's post. His perspective is entirely reasonable. | |
| Your Classe Omega Impressions 1999 stereo version I have a pair of Omega monoblocks, and I will say they are neutral, effortless, manage to represent both micro and macro dynamics. They have no aggressiveness to them. The best of solid state. | |
| Preamps with balanced ins/outs and remote I've got a VAC preamp that is transformer coupled on the output, and one can switch inputs b/t single ended and balanced (I assume also using transformers). I am told that this is a fully balanced preamp. Does that really qualify? It is fully bala... |
